Blog of Joe

The ideas of an aging American. In the Beginning.... the good lord created the earth and all the wonderful things therin. Then she created Adam and Eve. So far, okay. Then she created religions and governments. This was a major mistake. This blog is devoted to the errors of god, man and politicians and why the dumbest members of the human race often rise to positions of great influence and power.

The Genius of Rumsfeld...wrong every time

News item: Rumsfeld says that pulling out of Iraq would be like leaving Germany to the Nazis after WW2....
Once again, this astute mastermind of "Operation Iraqi Freedom" has spoken the unvarnished truth. The analogy is so precise and relevant. Remember that after WW2 there were 3 groups of Nazis: the Shi'a Nazis, the Sunni Nazis and the Kurdish Nazis. Or something like that. Rummy doesnn't need details, just the simplistic ideological "truth", unsupported by history. Donald's brain is starting to collapse from the weight of making up 4 years of fantasy history.
Starting to make GW look smart enough to win a third grade spelling bee.
Let's look at Rumsfeld's historic predictions.
1. Saddam Hussein was behind the 9/11 bombings.
2. Saddam Hussein has WMDs, including chemical and biological weapons.
3. Saddam Hussein has nukes and was going to use them.
4. The people of Iraq would greet American troops with flowers and parades as they drove happily into Baghdad.
5. We would need only 150,00 troops to win the war. And when those evil military generals like Shinseki said we would need 500,000 they were wrong. And they were fired.
6. We will find the weapons of WMD.
7. (6 revised). We will find some weapons of WMD.
8. (7 revised). Well, Saddam wanted to get WMDs, that's for sure.
9. The Iraqi people have elected there own government and want democracy. They can have any government they want.
10. The Iraqi people can't have an Islamic government.
11. It's not about oil, really, it's not.
Rummy never lies, he just continues to spout ideas with no basis in fact. And Fox "News "loves it.
So, when the US finally does crawl out of the wartorn, economically-destroyed Iraq with our tails between our legs, Rummy will undoubtedly call it "America's Finest Hour".

Hey Joe,
How about a little expose' on the academic prowess of our administration's leaders? I know for a fact that (1) George W. brags about his "C" average in college; (2) Cheney was sent home to Wyoming from Yale for school problems...later, after a "cooling off period," was re-admitted on probation, only to be finally tossed for good for more problems...which is why his official biography states that his bachelor's degree is from Wyoming; and (3) Tom DeLay was tossed out of Baylor Univ. Any knowledge of Rummy's track record?
